Now don't get me wrong, it's fine if you want tattoos or piercings. I have no problem with it, and in fact I want tattoos myself. But why do people feel the need to go so overboard. I can't understand why people cover their faces and bodies with so many random tattoos and piercings. These things are for life people! It might look good when you're younger and it's the cool thing to do, but the tattoos and piercings (depending on the size) will last you a life time. A tattoo isn't gonna look as good when your skin is wrinkly. Not to mention you might not even be able to tell what it is. My grandpa has a tattoo of a rose on his ankle and you can barley tell what it is because he is wrinkly and the colors look like they have faded. Now imagine that all over your face. The man with all the colorful designs on the picture above will deal with that for the rest of his life. Not only is it bizarre now, but think of when he's old a wrinkly. No one wants to see a crazy old man with a face full of tattoos. If you must get a tattoo then if anything get it somewhere that can be covered. There's a disadvantage for someone with a huge tattoo of something inappropriate for the workplace. But also people don't really think about the results of piercings. If you get gages or something really big, the hole might never close up. Then you will always be walking around with giant holes in your ears that aren't meant to be there. Plus, the guy in the middle picture looks like he has a giant piercing in his nose. How is that even going to look later on in life. Probably not good.
All the time when I'm at work, I always see these two older men who come in and they have tons of piercings and tattoos on their faces and arms. Now I'm sure they were the cool kids of their time, but obviously they didn't think ahead to what it would look like when they were older. Honestly, they look ridiculous and if it were me i would regret the decision to pierce my face and get tattoos in visible places.
I know I've been bashing tattoos, but I like tattoos. There just should be a limit on when your going over the top and later on you might regret it. There should be someone to tell you that you will look like an idiot. But for the next few people they must have been alone because no friend would allow this to happen:

How would you like to be a business person trying to introduce skull man, cow butt, or checkerboard face? I would even be embarrassed to introduce them as my friends. The moral of the story is to think about your tattoos and piercings before you actually get them. Something that permanent should not be done on a whim and if it is you will probably regret it. Especially if it's something embarrassing or just plain weird. If you really want a crazy tattoo and don't care what other people think about it, go for it. Just remember if you need to remove it, it would cost a lot of money and cause probably a lot of pain. Have fun getting your face tattoos lasered off!
I'd be a little creeped out if my friends did that
